What happened in Chicago is the equivalent of the Dems slitting a wrist, now it up to the leadership to determine if they're going to slit the other one and bleed out, or remedy the situation. The vast majority of the regressives on this board are crowing about shutting down an opposition rally, well get ready for the boomerang effect. If it happens again, you will see independents and moderate dims leaving the party in droves. The majority of Americans won't view this kind of behavior positively, the way the far left loons do. So you find yourselves at a cross roads, which path will you chose? Take the wrong one and you WILL lose this election and all the down ballot races as well. Please, feel free to keep it up.
Yet, the unfavorably opinion of Donald Trump in the general population continues to rise in all major poll, ABC/Washington Post, Gallup, NBC/WSJ, CNN, etc..
As the favorable opinion of Trump rises among, among militant authoritarians, it's falling in the general population. I think the number of demonstrations against Trump and his rhetoric of hate, racism, and xenophobia will continue to increase as more Americans realize that this pompous megalomaniac could become president.

How about you provide examples of anything he's said that is racist. You folks just love throwing around labels that don't apply. If you regressives had a shred of intellectual honesty you'd have no freaking idea what to do with it.
Most of Trump's racism is always there in speeches and interviews. His scapegoating of Hispanics, Muslims, Blacks, Chinese, and other minorities have become the centerpiece in his campaign. His racist attitude is sometimes blatant comments, but often innuendo, gestures, and his failure to oppose racist comments of supporters. However, Trump's inability to control his mouth reveals his true nature..
For example:
Trump kicked off his presidential campaign on June 16 from the Trump Tower in Manhattan, and immediately touched off a furor with his comments about immigration with this comment.
‘They’re rapists … some, I assume, are good people’
Speaking to Time magazine for a profile published in January 1989,
Trump was asked to give an estimate of his total wealth.
“Who the f knows? I mean, really, who knows how much the Japs will pay for Manhattan property these days?” he asked in response, using a racial slur for the Japanese.
At a Republican Jewish Coalition on Dec. 3, Trump calling himself
“a negotiator like you folks” , one of many Jewish stereotypes the Manhattan real-estate mogul dropped throughout his speech.
Trump's racism, bigotry and sexism goes far beyond comments. Since his announcement to run for president, he has built a nativist campaign aimed at a long list of people and minorities. He has resurrected birtherism, which he once deployed against President Obama, to suggest that Cuban-Americans
Ted Cruz and
Marco Rubio are ineligible for the presidency. He has called for
a national database of American Muslims and a
visa ban for Muslim travelers. He has ridiculed
women and
people with disabilities,
lauded Japanese internment, and
goaded his supporters to violence.
His bigotry and racism has garnered the enthusiastic support from hate groups through out the country including
David Duke, former Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan. Trump first rebuffed his endorsement, then went a bit wobbly in an interview with George Stephanopolous,
refusing to condemn Duke on three separate occasions. Stromfront, a white supremacy group announced it was increasing it's served size to accommodate Trump supporters.
